1. red riding hood as been rewritten many times
2. " Interestingly, the motif of the red cap (typically interpreted by folklorists as a symbol of wantonness) is not present; that was the invention of Charles Perrault."
3. the first written version of little red riding hood was in his 1697 collecting
4."This version was intended for the French upper class and is considerably less crude: the original elements of the story that would have shocked such society are withheld. Instead, Perrault presents a tale of both sexual suggestion and moral warning, an erotic paradox. "
5. intended to warn would-be-wayward young ladies, for in the end Red dies in the wolf's belly and Perrault writes this...

6.Little girls, this seems to say
Never stop upon your way,
Never trust a stranger-friend;
No one knows how it will end.
As you're pretty, so be wise;
Wolves may lurk in every guise.
Handsome they may be and kind,
Gay or charming -- never mind!
Now, as then, 'tis simple truth --
Sweetest tongue has sharpest tooth!
7. the brothers grimm rewrote this version of the story in 1812
8. his work has been rewritten a lot as the years go on

For a husband brave and strong;
But I'm sure I never met
Any sort of woman yet

How much wiser 'tis to wait,
Maids will be a-sighing still--
Young blood must when young blood will!
